Dimethicone 1000
Dimethicone 1000, also called Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) or dimethylpolysiloxane 1000 centistokes, is a silicone polymer with various uses, from cosmetics to industrial lubrication.
Dimethicone 1000 is a linear polydimethylsiloxane, colorless, odorless, non-toxic, and non-irritating.
Dimethicone 1000 is a linear polydimethylsiloxane with a viscosity of 1000 centipoise (cps).
PDMS 1000 is a colorless transparent liquid of polymethylsiloxane, also known as dimethicone 1000.
Dimethicone 1000 is a surfactant that is essentially non-toxic and has excellent dielectric properties.
Dimethicone 1000 contains organic methyl groups and inorganic siloxane bonds, providing excellent chemical and thermal stability.
Applications:
Dimethicone 1000 is widely used as a lubricant, mechanical fluid, mold release agent, anti-foam agent, polish, wetting agent, insulating and damping fluid. Dimethicone 1000 is used in various industries, such as food, personal care, metal die casting, plastics, rubbers, electronics, paints and coatings.
Synonyms of Dimethicone 1000: Dimethicone 1000 cSt, Dimethicone 1000 cs, PDMS 1000, dimethylpolysiloxane 1000, Polydimethylsiloxane 1000, poly(dimethylsiloxane) 1000, E900
Dimethicone 1000 fluid can stay in liquid form over various temperatures and pressures.
As a result, Dimethicone 1000 is used in applications that require fluid properties in harsh environments.
Dimethicone 1000 can stay liquid at conditions that cause organic polymers to become greases, waxes, or solids.
Because the viscosity of Dimethicone 1000 changes very little with temperature, pressure, mechanical stress, or chemical exposure, it can excel in applications requiring fluid properties in harsh environments.
With relatively stable viscosity and other excellent properties, Dimethicone 1000 is a strong candidate to consider for use in a wide range of applications:
In mechanically demanding applications such as hydraulics and damping, Dimethicone 1000 typically provides excellent shear stability and excellent lubrication or slip.
Because of its unusually low interfacial tension, Dimethicone 1000 is excellent for applications requiring high surface activity and significant spreading or penetration. Mold releases, polishes, and cosmetics can benefit from these characteristics.
Dimethicone 1000 can be considered for liquid dielectrics; measurements have revealed that the dielectric strength, volume resistivity, dielectric constant, and dissipation factor are little affected by temperatures over a wide range.
Dimethicone 1000 provides excellent shear stability and good lubrication or slip in mechanically demanding applications.
For a high affinity with the skin, Dimethicone 1000 can be used in skin care products to obtain a silk-like smooth feel.
As a carrier, Dimethicone 1000 can provide a better silky feel and enhance the long-lasting performance of other active ingredients on the skin.

Skin protecting: Dimethicone 1000 helps to avoid the harmful effects of external factors on the skin
Dimethicone 1000 is a medium-thick viscosity that offers excellent barrier properties when used in skin protectant formulations.
Dimethicone 1000, included in even small amounts, is one of the best ingredients to provide a hydrophobic barrier to the skin. It can assist in slowing the skin’s moisture loss to improve hydration and moisture.
Dimethicone 1000 adds slip and glide, reducing tackiness.
Dimethicone 1000 offers conditioning properties when used in hair and skin care applications.
Dimethicone 1000 oil-soluble silicone is an excellent cosmetic ingredient for skin care and hair care applications with various uses.
Dimethicone 1000 offers natural lubrication, adding more slip and glide to cosmetics, reducing tackiness on the skin and a sticky feeling in hair, improving hair's softness, and reducing frizziness even in high humidity.
Dimethicone 1000 also helps to create a protective barrier on the skin, helping to protect it from harsh outside elements such as heat, sun damage, cold winds, and things such as free radicals.
This silicone possesses natural emolliency, so it is an excellent addition to cosmetics such as conditioners, lotions, moisturizers, and other leave-on and rinse-off applications.
With a thicker viscosity, Dimethicone 1000 creates a more substantial protective barrier than ingredients such as Dimethicone 100 or 350.
Dimethicone 1000 is mainly known for its unusual rheological (or flow) properties.
Dimethicone 1000 is optically clear and generally inert, non-toxic, and non-flammable.
Dimethicone 1000 is one of several types of silicone oil (polymerized siloxane).
Its applications range from contact lenses and medical devices to elastomers; it is also present in shampoos (as it makes hair shiny and slippery), food (antifoaming agent), caulk, lubricants, and heat-resistant tiles.
